THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.
WASHINGTON, April 18th, 1887.

WASHINGTON, April 18th, 1901.
During the democratic admlnlstra-
t;on many of the musty regulations
With which republican official life had
hedoed itself in, have been o~verhauleo'
and where there was no good reason
for their existence, have been dlscoh-
tinued.
Senator Cockrelrs investigating COM
mittee (the senate select commlttee
which is now probing the methods OF
work in the different executive depart
ments of the government) has uhoer-
taken a gigantic task, but it will make
an elaborate report of its labors some
time in the future. The Missouri sen
ator is a very conscientious, pains-tak-
inc man. and he is giving the puonc
Offices much annoyance n no ilttie
nneasiness, He wants to know (you
know, and the number OF things tne
public don't know, and that senator
Cockrell will have a great zeal Oh
trouble in finding out, is astonishing
The committee is not expected 10
pass Judgment up on the civil service
law. but incidentally the operations OF
the law will come under the purvleW
of the committee, and the latter Will be
expected to answer such questions as
the following: lis the government any
better served-the public business
more rapidly expedited. the morals OF
fine methods of the several departments
i'm any respect the gainer-now tina
what is called the "spoil system" hss
been done away with?
II is a matter of no small Importance
The people are told that the civil ser
vice law, in its classified application
is working wonders of reform, bu
they have only hearsay evidence t
that effect. They are assured tina
it is doing away with great deal o
favoritism, relieving the appoinnn!
power of much embarrassment, purify
ing the channels Of patronage, an
eleyating the standard OF clerica
merit. Thev are interested in know
ing whether civil service reform
really all that its friends claim o
whether it is a sham and a humbus a
it's enemies insist. Senator Cockreii
committee, with so good an opportuhl
ty. can find out all about 1t.

tary, has accepted the Office of Secre-
tary for War.
Lord Iddlesleigh has not yet decided
to accept the suggestion to relinquish
the foreign sccretsryship in favor of
Lord Salisbury. If Lord Iddlesleigh
decides to resign the Office, he will
probably take Stanhope's place as
Colonial Secretary.
The Marquis of Lansdowne's declina-
ton OF tae Office profered by the Mar
quis of Salisbury has been received by
letter.
LONDON. January ct is reported
that Lord Salisbury will make no further
effort to complete his cabinet with tie
Whips, but will fill the vacant offices
with Conservatives. The Conservative
Council of Liverpool, has invited Mr..
Goschen to contest the vacant Parlia-
mentary seat in that city, and it. is
thought that he will consent.
The Standard says Gladstone is pre-
pared to modify his home rule scheme
According to the Standard, he is willing
to confne the powers of the proposed
Irish legislative body to questions ex-
cluslvely Irish, which may be desig-
mated TO it. ii- -i-'

Dynamite Deviltly.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 6.-At late
hour last night residents IN the vicinity
OF Harrison Street were startled by
a terrific explosion. Most of them
had retired and being awakened from
their sleep ran out into the street in
their night clothing. The first impress
sion created was that an earthquake
had shaken down the buildings. In
vestigation, however, disclosed that a
dynamite cartridge had been placed in
the cable slot on the LarkinStreet branch
of the Suffer Street railroad, and ex-
ploded.D The Basalt rocks on either
side of the slot were loosened and the
masonry shattered. The pulIeys
upon which the cable runs were
also broken and the foundation
of the tunnel cracked. Window panes
in the vicinity were ratified violently
at the time of the explosion, and in.
many cases shattered. In saloon two
blocks away, lighted lamp was thrown
to the floor and nearly caused con-
fagration. Iron plates of the man
holes of the track were found 200 feet
away, to which distance they were
hurled. A lady living in the neighbor.
